#some are just way too eager to cast judgment before they've even seen the final product

the latest theory going around about daeron on twitter is what if the show genderswaps him into a daughter. I wouldn't be upset about this except for the fact that a lot of stuff we know would make even less sense if this were true. I wouldn't be truly happy knowing full well the writers will never address certain things like oh i don't know...why isn't fem daeron married? And if she is...why wasn't aemond chosen as her husband? Or why didn't rhaenyra propose a match between her and jace since they're closer in age?

Making daeron a girl would bring up more questions than answers IMO

I will say fem daeron makes for a good scenario in au fics at least..

But anyway I don't think it's gonna happen at all and people are just dying for casting news lol.

i agree, i think fem!daeron can be interesting in fic, but, as it stands, it would cause more plotholes than it would solve if they genderswapped him in the show

the reason why i'm not super invested in pre-production & filming news is that we're always going to get incomplete information and it just seems silly to me to dedicate energy and mental space to theories like this when most of the time no one even knows for sure what they're talking about

like, i acknowledge it could be fun sometimes so no judgment, but some fans actually seem to panic and worry over stuff like this when it's really not that serious. we could just very well not know who plays daeron yet because not everything leaks or maybe they haven't even filmed oldtown scenes yet
